Link Love: The Game!
September 10th, 2008 Posted in Internet, RandomSince I’ve been out for a while and I’m still working on those Brooklyn essays, I figured I should take this opportunity to write a filler post to help get me back into the swing of blogging. But the Brooklyn Essays are gonna be good, I promise! Or they’ll good by my writing standards, which means if you don’t particularly care for my writing style they’ll still be crap. But they’ll be shiny crap.
Sparkleturds, if you will.
That, however, does not change that I still need to get back into the swing of writing regularly and participating in the shit-ton of feeds I subscribe to – which is something I actively like doing! I forgot how much I missed this!
So like an icebreaker, I propose a game. And I will play the first round!
How to play: Pick a handful of your favorite blogs – it helps if you haven’t visited or commented on them in a while. Then, pick a post. Link to the post via linking to the permalink, but give that post an alternate title that might encourage onlookers to visit them. (Note: It helps to know what the post is about.) Then, simply credit the author in brackets.
I realize this is a “non-post” or “filler” as they say, but there’s no sense in leaving this blog dead, ya know.
Anyway, on with the show:
- Burst and Bloom [...the almost right word]
- We Should Get A Cake! [angelaboration]
- Premonition [apricot tea.]
- Be A Bee Eff Eff [Chelsea Talks Smack]
- Let’s Step Back For A Second Here [A Very Bad Cat]
- Opinions Are Like Assholes. [d-blogged]
- Some Men Never Learn. Or They Learn What They Want To. [Ex-Everything]
- NPH Is A Good Enough Reason To Check This Out [Gorgeous Footsteps In The Sand]
- Maxie vs. McCain [i hate so much...]
- Cookie-Loving-Love [More is Better.]
- Gray Skies. [My Heart's Porch]
- A steaming turd of dachshund feces. [No Ordinary Rollercoaster]*
- The Oft Ignored Gray Area, Considered [Speak On It]
- Sgt. Pepper’s Movie Discount Man [Starting Over @ 24]
- Jack Handy Has Nothing On This Guy [Surviving Myself]
- I Have A Knife With Your Name On It [Tough Girl 101]
- Fuckinay [Off in my own little world...]
- The Broken Stick Together ['til the river runs dry...]
- I Think “Möhippa” Translates to “Bachelorette Party” [variations in the key of Cb]
- Meme. memememememememe. But a Good One! [You Are Flawed If You Are Not Free]
Good? Good. Yeah, I know it’s not everyone, but this is all I had time to read tonight considering all the work I’m backed up on thanks to the vacation.
I kinda like this. It’s like cracking knuckles and rolling your neck before you get back to work, anticipating your hands getting dirty again. I’m considering turning this into a regular habit as a way of really getting to understand my peers.
Anyway, that’s all for now. More to come, as per the aforementioned.
*note: dude, I could not help but name this a line from your post, it made me laugh so hard that I swallowed the gum I was chewing.
Sparkleturds. Hahahaha! This is a great idea for a filler post. Thanks for including my mememememe.
Sparkleturds!!! What an awesome word. If you ever rename your blog that would be a great one :-)
Thanks for including me!
Bwaaaah. this onslaught of creative dictionarianism from you is pure joy :)
…as are the link love tips.
Let me work on dat dere thesis I have staring bloody murder at me from a corner of the screen, and I too shall play the L.<3. game presently.
Speaking of love: Anna Banana is getting married on saturday! :)
You know what? I’ve been preparing for months now to be known as that guy with the pooping wiener dogs. I’m finally at peace…
I just feel bad for any of the people who click over because of that line of text.
Looking forward to the essays. Thanks for the link love!
Sparkleturds? I hope you know how hard a time I will have explaining why I just showered my monitor in coffee……
<3
hahaha, I love it!
I, too, was tickled at your “sparkleturd” comment. Very clever. :]
& thank you for the linkage.
Thanks for the love, my friend! The idea behind this is so cool and, honestly, I am flattered that you chose me to be a part of it.
And I cannot wait for the Brooklyn series!
Hey thanks for the link love man!
NPH is awesome. the end.
LMFAO- I gotta tell you, I really LOVE the name you gave mine. That freakin rocks.
Sparkleturd is officially my new favorite term of endearment.
Sparkleturds! Niiiice. :o)
I love that you renamed mine “Fuckinay”. I think you picked a better title than I did. I say fuckinay a lot, too, so it was very appropriate.
sparkletards. you’re my catchword HEROOOOO!
